Default Cargo Net

Has anybody put a cargo net in place of the fold-down back seat rest?

Also the driver's side bolt plate from the rear seat catch must have fallen down in the frame of the car. Was it tac-welded from factory?

One of the first questions I always get asked when I post pics of my car is if the cargo net is the factory one. I really have no idea. It should be hooked to the seatback.

Ok. I'll see if I can get a magnet retriever down in the speaker channel and pull it up. I'm going to bild some type of attachment blocks to hook a cargo net to.

He was making fun of your spelling of college. You should give him a smack on the nose with a rolled up newspaper.

On my car the upholstery face-to-face measurement at the seat latches when removed is 51.75" and @ 45" between the lower mounts and @ 8" tall

Now to find something to fit and prevent a 2-liter bottle of coke going thru the windshield during a grocery trip LOL.

That net looks curiously like the cargo net that came with my 1996 Explorer. What does the yellow label say?

I'm trying to find a Truck bed net the right size to finish this project....I already knocked out the prototype adapter brackets. The next ones will be a smaller diameter disc and will clear the carpeting/body contour.....
